How easy/practical is it to add seats to a Searider 5.4? There's one for sale with a 2-person jockey seat, but I need seating for 2 more. Is it feasible to put a seat across a Searider just in front of the transom? If so, can you point me in the direction of suppliers etc.
Thanks

If I recall rightly, "Max..." who bought Matt h's 4.7 Searider constructed two temporary seats that fitted behind the fitted ones. You might like to ask him regarding the matter

Depends on the boat and the engine. I wouldn't want to be sat in the stern of a 5.4 just in front of a 2 stroke and they'd need some form of backrest or it's quite easy to get an extremity caught on the steering.

So are there other options on a 5.4? Wasn't sure about how much deck space there is.
Engine is a Yam 90HP 2 stroke

Just a quick note to say I'm trying to do the same on a 5.3 Humber Destroyer with a 90 Mariner 2 stroke. So I am encountering similar problems

I thinking of having a jockey seat on a single or double stainless pedestal. I'll keep you posted.
Attached some rough sketches of single and double options for a better idea.
